Street Fighter 6 ED Winter Balance Changes! Review & Thoughts (Season 2)

[@pepeknight]

I feel like Capcom went overboard with this one, especially when Ken received slaps on the wrists and Rashid absolutely got away scott free

Ken didn't break the game like ED did. I am not a ken main but ed is on another level

[@alfredososa3059]

​@@azizkash286Ed broke the game??? 🤡

​@@alfredososa3059Clown emoji couldn't be more appropriate

I'm fine with the whiff punish and Lvl 2 changes. But there's literally no reason to go after the kill rush. That just removed an identity of the character that made him unique. I hope that gets reverted.

[@keagian8115]

Only thing I would say is the kill rush back is a nerf that didn't need to happen. Otherwise I'm fine with them making Ed easier to hit, as Ed's poke game made it so he could keep you out and kept you in a constant state of having to take risks against him.

[@ketchupdesu1677]

Think back kill rush distance nerf and hurtbox extension kinda killed his concept. MK change is rather fair imo.

[@xiaochief318]

Kill rush nerf killed ed. Button nerfs can be mitigated with better better spacing etc. Kill rush nerf kills the entire character with no counterplay (yet?)

[@malik2978]

They went way too overboard with this nerve especially compared to what they did to Luke & Rashid. The Kill Rush change should be removed that was overkill

[@Error-wn5gy]

Capcom casually letting brainless characters get off the hook for free while punishing those that take actual skill😭😭😭

[@GreenBro11]

That kill rush nerf feels like that original JP anti air nerf. It’s an overreaction that will majorly hurt the character’s defense and I predict Capcom will eventually walk that one back.

[@2Good2BeTrue45]

Ed needed buffs, not nerfs. They killed this character for no reason

[@muaythaiultrastreet6016]

They make kill rush useles and a nonsense, whats the point of a bait move if he can't bait a thing

[@eddieherndon1871]

They massacred my boy 😭😭 kill rush nerf and 2lk nerf guts the character

[@MrFraiche]

The idea of Kill Rush is to dodge attacks.…they should just make it so they’re back to neutral with no frame advantage rather than make it punishable.

[@KINGBLCKSTARR]

bro the standing MK hurtbox is very nasty work idk why capcom gave ed the dhalsim treatment😭😭😭😭 wtf

[@BrewSir]

Man that kill rush hurtbox is insane. Might be better off committing to the move at that point

[@fuman7057]

Ed was gutted and is low-tier, just like JP was at the start of Season 2.

[@LukeHwarang]

I'm doing a Vesper's balance patch videos marathon xD

[@kevonking5469]

We know they did this to help Japanese players in the Capcom cup

[@NeoTheHumalien]

Kill Rush backwards should have been left alone. It's a bait move after all, so what's the point of having it nerfed? That just makes no sense at all.

[@LoneRatatouille]

I'm swaping from ed to aki he is not worth the effort he bearly was before the nerfs but now he's a lost cause i swear the 600 hours it took me to get him to master was a waste of time

[@alchemystn2o]

Woshige's vision 😂

[@a.d.ovinniex9828]

Im not a pro and i feel those changes, pro players will drop ed

[@fRikimaru1974]

Those nerfs and adjustments seem quite fair.

[@rafdes]

Ed players just gotta think a little more instead of throwing safe moves out like nothing. Boohoo so sad for them.

[@PopoTCG]

what safe moves?
